Hello to everyone. Newbie here with a question about Berdan primers. I would like to reload some 6.5x53R Dutch ammo. It had a single flash hole, so I thought "no problem, boxer". Ran a couple thru a decap die and they all have the anvil as part of the case, but with a "slot" cut on the top of the anvil. Diameter is about .185. Old primers about .195. While I was looking at the cases, I noticed the RCBS case prep on the end of the bench with a primer pocket uniformer ready to go, and thought hmmm. Any reason not to try it? Is this brass worth anything? New Boxer brass is worth MORE than its weight in gold and
berdan primers are hens teeth. Any help or ideas welcome.
Thanks, Jim
